Common Problems

  • Error: "That name is taken. Taken names can't be claimed (even if inactive)"

This error means another character with the same name already exists on your realm. 

  • If the character with the same name belongs to you, you can delete the character that has the name.
  • If the character with the same name belongs to another player, you must choose another name.

Customer Support does not manually release character names.
